Default joining two MN-700 networks between houses



I have a wireless network with MN-700 router and some MN-
730 wireless cards. My neighbor has the same setup with
same hardware. We live very close to each other and we
have the ability to log onto each other's network. But
how can we combine the two to make one network between the
two houses? Bridge? make one router an access point?...

Help please!

One would need to be on an access point, which necessitates use of RJ-45
cable from one MN-700 to the other. Microsoft's base stations do not relay
wireless signals between themselves.

You need a wireless to Ethernet bridge, you can use MS
xbox adaptor, but need a xbox to configure it first. Or
you can get a other brand bridge, like linksys or dlink.
